The 1,000 Paper Cranes Journey (Senbazuru)

Each crane is custom-tailored, serving as a permanent talisman of personal renewal.

"I'm over the moon excited about my two new tattoo additions from Lucky Leaf Tattoo! Din is AMAZING and the space he has created for his clients is clean, bright, welcoming, and comforting. The tattoos were so easy and nearly pain free and I credit a lot of that to Din making sure I was comfortable and taken care of for my session. His journey of tattooing 1,000 paper cranes is so fun and unique. I highly recommend and would 100% go back for another tattoo."
"Din is awesome! He makes the tattoo process so much less intimidating than other shops. His communication is excellent pre-appointment. His work is impeccable. His patience is superb. I wouldn't go anywhere else now that I've discovered Lucky Leaf!"
